Thanks. We have him on dry sand right now, I was just wetting down around the water dish only for him.I dont use aspen for our snakes its hard to find here.I use newspaper or sand or eco earth.I will get a branch in there for him.He has become quite bold and will hang out on the rock and doesnt dive out of sight now.We have a great baitshop nearby that sells minnows, goldfish and frogs all live so food isnt a problem.We will mix it up for him..Do they eat once a week or more often? He sure chowed down both those fish like nothing.
